ItemRack

This is a mod to make swapping equipment easier through popout slot menus, equip slot buttons, gear sets and automated swaps.

__ Quick Start Guide __

Minimap button:
* Right-click the minimap button to open options or create sets
* Left-click the minimap button to choose a set
* Shift-click the minimap button to unequip the last set equipped
* Alt-click the minimap button to toggle events on/off

Dockable buttons:
* Alt+click slots on the character sheet to create/remove buttons
* Alt+click yourself in the character sheet to create/remove a set button
* Alt+click the created buttons to toggle their auto-queue status
* Shift+drag buttons to break them apart if they're docked to each other
* Drag the menu's border around to dock it to a different side of buttons
* Right-click the menu's border to rotate the menu
* Size, alpha, spacing, etc are in options

Creating/equipping sets:
* You create sets in the Sets tab after right-clicking the minimap button
* Select slots for the set, choose a name and icon and click Save
* Once a set is saved, there are several ways to equip it:
1. Left-click the minimap button and choose the set
2. Mouseover a set button you've created (Alt+click yourself in character sheet)
3. Use a key binding you define in the set ("Bind Key" button)
4. In macros with /itemrack equip setname
5. In events or scripts that use EquipSet("setname")

Popout menus:
* Click an item or set in a menu to equip it
* Shift+click a set in a menu to unequip it
* Alt+click an item in a menu to hide/unhide it
* Hold Alt as you mouseover a slot to show all hidden items

While at a bank:
* Items/sets in the bank have a blue border.
* Selecting an item or set that's in the bank will pull it from the bank to your bags.
* Selecting an item or set that's not in the bank will attempt to put it all into the bank.

In the unlikely event that another mod (or default UI in the future) uses these function names, you can use their long version ItemRack.EquipSet(), ItemRack.UnequipSet(), etc. This mod only commandeers the shortened names if they appear to be unused.

__ Events __

2.2 (re)introduces events. These are scripts to automatically equip and unequip gear as things happen in game.

To use an event:
1. In the 'Sets' tab, create or make sure you have a set you'd like to equip when the event happens.
2. In the 'Events' tab, click the red ? icon beside the event you want to use.
3. Choose the set for this event.
4. Ensure the event has a check beside it.

As events are enabled, a separate process watches for those events and equips (and unequips if chosen) as they happen.

If you want to create or edit an event, there are four types of events:

Buff: These events equip gear as you gain buffs. ie, Evocation, Drinking and being on a mount.
Stance: These events equip gear when you change stances or forms. ie, Battle Stance, Moonkin Form, Shadowform
Zone: These events equip gear when you're in one of a list of zones. ie, the PVP event includes all arena and BG maps.
Script: For those with lua knowledge, you can create your own event based on a game event. A couple examples are in the default events.

When dealing with events, it's good to keep some things in mind:
* You'll get the most predictable behavior by having sets that don't overlap. If you're a warrior with a Tanking, DPS and PVP set, consider not including weapons in those sets. If you decide to make an event to swap in a 2H when you go into Berserker Stance and a 1h+shield when you go into Defensive Stance, you won't step on the toes of events that swap in PVP gear in a BG/arena or a tuxedo in a city.
* A gold gear icon on the minimap button (and on the sets button if you've created one) means that events are enabled. If you decide you want to temporarily shut down all events, Alt+click the minimap button or the sets button. (You can disable events in options also)
* For non-English users, you might want to edit the events that have English text within them. I try to keep it locale-independant when possible (ie, warrior and most druid stances use the numbers instead of names), but you'll never enter "Stormwind City" on a deDE client for the city event.
* Script Events do not have a "set" defined to them like other events do. They need to EquipSet("setname") explicitly. Its set button will always be the macro keys icon.
* Advanced users of 1.9x may notice the lack of a delay option in scripted events. I've decided to pull this down into the scripting system to streamline the event process. For now, you can use ItemRack.CreateTimer and ItemRack.StartTimer defined in ItemRack.lua.

Since I don't get Gello's answer, I've created a continued ItemRack version on curse.com (waiting for approval).
I'll wait for him to answer for a few days and if I still don't get any, I'll create an updated version here on wowinterface.

The day had to come sooner or later, but now that it's come, it's really hard. It's totally broken and without Buggrabber/ BugSack it produced hundreds of error codes, so my fps dropped from about 120 to around 16.

It's nice that people are patching Itemrack it's an addon I'm not sure I could live without but more often every day I find an addon that has been changed and no longer works with Itemrack without it being changed by the author or making changes myself.

Anyone know if anyone will take over the project or if we should possibly move on? right now I'm using an old version of Button Facade because itemrack isn't supported in the new versions.

Originally posted by galvin The built in equipment manager sucks, its more work to get to it for one thing. For example I would have fishing pole equipped, but couldn't switch back to TG without manually unequipping fishing pole. Itemrack does this no problem.

Most things blizzard copies is always a stripped down version of the original mod resulting in still needing to use the mod anyway.

yes but problem is if u want swap weps in combat u need to use the games one maybe thats why he not bothering anymore

i have tried the scripts here for swapping gear when u change talents and when i test it it swapss ok but if i try a macro as described or use the talent window the gear does not equip, wot am i doing wrong?

i would also like to be able to have my gear swap back to previous when i leave stealth how do i do this?

Originally posted by Valanya I'm assuming Gello quit updating due to the WoW Equipment Manager that's default in the game. Why bother updating a mod that is already covered in game?

This was working until I don't know when. I have a fishing set that I switch to, when done fishing I click on the same set which would put the item back that I was wearing before I switched in the first place. I don't know this stopped, I haven't fished for a month or two.
